optionalDependencies are not installed #76

Closed davej closed 8 years ago

davej commented 8 years ago

To be compatible with npm then optionalDependencies should be installed just like dependencies the only difference is that if there is a failure then install doesn't fail and continues regardless.

This might be a bit hard. Want to give it a go?

davej commented 8 years ago

Does ied currently build modules? I'm unclear of the currently supported functionality.

rstacruz commented 8 years ago

ied doesn't support it at the moment.

optionalDependencies are being treated just like normal dependencies. This will stay like that in the forseeable future.
lifecycle scripts (= "building modules") are currently opt-in via the the --build flag due to security concerns
